Met a friend at Guardsman Pass to pick up some tables from him and figured I'd get some stellar views. I walked straight up the ridge north from Guardsman Pass and was offered great views, headed down the ridge to Jupiter and also enjoyed great views of the cliffs of Jupiter!

I always called this peak Guardsman until now. Did this one with 10,420 and Scott Hill. Good day.
12/13/2014: Along with 10,420. Beat the storm.
12/24/2014: What a way to spend the morning on Christmas Eve. WOW
12/27/2014: Three-fer again today. 1 degree when we started 16 degrees when we finished. BRRRR

Drove up guardsman pass after work to spend a little time at higher altitudes. I walked straight up the hill to the top of Tri-County Peak. It took only a few minutes. I then followed the ridge to Scott Hill and back. The cool wind was nice and the views were great. Not too bad when your car does most of the work.

I climbed to the peak via the Guardsman Pass road from where they close it in the winter. There was a layer of ice from the pass to the peak. I really had to stomp my snowshoes to keep from sliding off the mountain. It was a fun climb.
